OpenJDK

The IcedTea project provides a harness to build the source code from OpenJDK using Free Software build tools, along with additional features such as the ability to build against system libraries and support for alternative virtual machines and architectures beyond those supported by OpenJDK.

This release updates our OpenJDK 7 support in the 2.5.x series with the April 2015 security fixes.

Please Note: The backport of jdk.tls.ephemeralDHKeySize is currently modified so as to retain “legacy” mode as the default, which uses 768-bit keys. To use the OpenJDK 8 default (1024-bit keys), pass -Djdk.tls.ephemeralDHKeySize=jdk8 on the command-line. Both OpenJDK 7 & 8 allow the use of “matched” mode which creates an ephemeral DH key matching the size of the authentication key, or the specification of a key size between 1024 and 2048 bits inclusive.

This release updates our OpenJDK 7 support in the 2.5.x series with the October 2014 security fixes.

Note that alternate virtual machines (e.g. CACAO, JamVM) will be broken by this release, until such a time as they introduce support for JVM_FindClassFromCaller, a new virtual machine interface function added by S8015256
